How much does a watch lose per day, if its hands coincide every 64 minutes?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do you mean how much time a watch looses per day ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if so 1 hour = 60 mins and in this case 1 hour = 64 mins so your loosing 4 mins every hour since there are 24 hours in a day, simply 24 * 4 = 96 minutes.

Actually this is more complicated than just this. If you think carefully, the hands of a watch reunite after an hour and and 5 minutes approximately. Like at 0000hrs, then at 0105hrs, the 0210hrs, and so on..
